Alan Vega:
🎵 Kung Foo Cowboy -
IT'S ABOUT TIME 4 THIS ONE:
"Rocket rocket U.S.A
Shooting on down, I'm on my way
TV star riding around
...
Whole country is doing a fix
It's doomsday, doomsday
---
Speeding down the skyway
100 miles per hour
Gonna crash
Gonna die
Ooh yeah
And I don't care"https://youtu.be/3GN1VkRX5co?si=2_VQw7FbyMFR6MNG

Alan Vega Releases Unheard “Kung Foo Cowboy” Demo; Debut Solo Records To Be Reissued Via Sacred Bones An The Vega Vault Project On January 23rd

Photo courtesy of Saturn Strip, LTDThe Vega Vault Project and Sacred Bones Records continue to uncover Alan Vega’s robust collection of work left behind by the influential visual artist, musician and poet (see below for more about the Vega Vault Project). Today, they share three new tracks from the forthcoming reissues of Vega’s highly influential 1980 debut S/T solo album and follow up, Collision Drive. Now remastered from the original tapes, and available on streaming services for the first time ever, the two albums will be faithfully re-released by Sacred Bones Records on January 23rd, preserving the raw intensity of Vega’s original recordings while making them newly accessible to listeners worldwide. The Vega Vault Project and Sacred Bones have meticulously assembled these packages and will also offer a companion piece Alan Vega Deluxe Edition which will be available as a limited deluxe double LP and include unheard demos, unseen photos and new artwork. All three albums contain unseen photos and new album artwork (including Alan Vega’s original track sheets from his 1978 Suicide / The Clash Tour Notebook).
The releases were announced late last year, along with the newly remastered version of S/T track “Ice Drummer“ and an accompanying video created by Douglas Hart of The Jesus & Mary Chain, as well as the newly remastered version of “Outlaw” from Collision Drive.
Today three more tracks from the forthcoming releases have been made available – the remastered versions of Vega’s twangy, guitar-driven “Kung Foo Cowboy” and his aching punk rockabilly “Magdalena 83”, as well as a previously unheard demo of “Kung Foo Cowboy”, which will be available as part of the Alan Vega Deluxe Edition release.

To celebrate the release, The Vega Vault Project and Sacred Bones will be hosting listening events in Paris and Stockholm, with DJs spinning music from Vega’s universe and exclusive giveaways. Details are:
January 23 – Riche Fenix, Stockholm, Sweden. 16h – 20h.
January 24 – Chair de Poule Bar, Paris, France. 19h – 1h. -

Stumbled on this the other day when browsing a Discogs shop, very much in an industrial Alan Vega state of mind right now.

Alan Vega. With his passing, Vega left behind an unparalleled catalogue of work: tapes upon tapes of unreleased part-completed songs, recorded sounds, raw beats, sketchbooks, artwork and ideas. https://hero-magazine.com/article/257389/alan-vega-jared-artaud-douglas-hart #AlanVega #Suicide #Music

The killer new Oneida record reminded me to dig out this pic of the band backstage with the late/great Alan Vega. Photo snapped immediately after their joint appearance at WFMU's 2007 Free Music Series gig in Brooklyn. I remember how floored the Oneida guys were when I told them I'd booked Vega for this gig, and they suggested a joint performance of Suicide's "Rocket USA" (which Oneida frequently covered.) I backchanneled the idea to Vega's wife and musical partner Liz Lamere, who enthusiastically agreed, and it wound up being the crowning moment of an undeniably great night. (The bill also featured Old Time Relijun and the first-ever Stateside performance of Canadian psych-punk mavens Simply Saucer.)

I’m going to see #LydiaLunch play the songs of #AlanVega & #Suicide in November & I couldn’t be more excited. Not seen Lydia for 20+ years & never got to see Suicide play. Hope I don’t squeal when she comes on.

Upon recommendation of #HenryRollins (via his Stay Fanatic Vol. 1), today is an #AlanVega day, catching up on what Uncle Hank would probably include in #GreatAlbumRuns: Deuce Avenue, Power on to Zero Hour, New Raceion, Dujang Prang
